"content": " Thank you, Hon. Speaker. As a member of the Committee, I, too, wish to support our Report. I have four comments I would want to make. First, all the nine nominees are from different backgrounds, professions and careers. We have Mr. Ndegwa Muhoro as the second police officer to be appointed as a diplomat. We have two senior professional soldiers, Lt. Gen. Ondieki and Lt. Gen. Thuita, who have had a very successful career in the military. They are diplomats by their own right. We have two politicians. I did serve in the House with Hon. Patrick Ahenda although he was here for one year. In the 10th Parliament, I did serve with Hon. Benjamin Langat. Interestingly, when you ask the two politicians the experience they have as diplomats, they said you cannot be an MP unless you are a diplomat, which we actually agree with them. Also, we have a retired career diplomat who has been appointed again, and that is Ambassador Peter Oginga Ogego. This is somebody I did interact with once he was in our The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
